What is it with brakeless single speeds? WHY?
They want that feeling of being at one with the large vehicle that's left hooking them.

Don't worry. They have a short life span.

BMX'ers who've been riding around footpaths at 5mph brakeless, hopefully finding out very quickly they can't do the same thing at speed in traffic on a single speed.

Sitting at the South end of Milkwood Road, at the Half Moon Lane/Norwood Road, waiting for the lights to change in my favour. They do, only a cockwomble on a white singlespeed doesn't stop at the Half Moon lights and keeps going, cutting across my path. Then he realises why I had slowed down - to avoid being crushed by the coach on my right, making the same turn. He now tries to avoid death, which requires both his feet on the ground since it is a brakless singlespeed.
Suicidal bell-end.
